Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI)

The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI) is a survey or preferred thinking modes. This 120-question survey form results in a profile of your preferred thinking styles. The survey measures preferences rather than skills. It is not a test; there are no wrong answers. Thinking preference does not mean competence. We can learn to use our primary and secondary preferred modes more effectively through training, motivation and practice, and we can learn to strengthen less preferred modes

By understanding your thinking style preferences you can achieve greater appreciation for how you learn, make decisions, solve problems, and communicate, and why you do these, and other, things the way you do. [HBDI report - $80]

Honey Mumford Learning Styles Questionnaire (LSQ)

The concept of 'learning style' is widely recognised in management education and development. An individual's cognitive style can be thought of as a relatively fixed aspect of learning performance and influences an individual's general attainment or achievement in learning.

Learning style is the composite of characteristic cognitive, affective, and psychological factors that serves as an indicator of how an individual interacts with and responds to the learning environment.

To gain a better understanding of yourself as a learner, you can evaluate the way you prefer to learn or process information. By doing so, you will be able to develop strategies which will enhance your learning potential. [LSQ report - $40]

SYMLOG

SYMLOG is both a field theory of social-psychological interaction and a system of measurement. SYMLOG has been used in value-based change efforts worldwide. To better understand How, Why and by Whom, check the items below.

The SYMLOG process increases the probability that when individuals or groups try to improve, their efforts will be successful. Learning will take place and adaptability to changing conditions will become an accepted process. SYMLOG offers a constructive way to turn insight into action.

Individuals, groups, or members of organisations make a set of SYMLOG ratings on important concepts. The concepts target behaviour interactions and the inferences people make about the underlying values driving behaviours.

Extensive personalized reports are produced for feedback sessions facilitated by Certified SYMLOG Consultants. It is possible to receive feedback simultaneously on an individual's perception of others, others' perceptions of an individual, the dynamics and norms of groups, and the components of the organizational culture. [SYMLOG report - $200 (minimum of 6)]

Thomas- Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI)

Conflict is often seen as negative, yet it can lead to great change and improvement. Learning when your conflict management style is appropriate and adding new styles to your abilities will give you the edge you've been missing up until now. Most of us prefer one style; learning about other styles will increase your effectiveness and ability to work well with others.

The TKI gives each person a report on the 5 conflict styles or modes. Each mode is appropriate in different situations; each is effective at different times. Learn which mode is your primary and when to use it for best results. Discover how to use your less preferred modes for conflict resolution in work, family, and social settings. Test each person in your group to learn how you can all get along better.

The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument is a self-scoring exercise that takes about 15 minutes to complete. Interpretation and feedback materials help you learn about the most appropriate uses for each conflict-handling mode. It also gives suggestions for increasing your "comfort level" with your less used styles. [TKI report - $40]
